Compressed sensing enables the reconstruction of high-resolution signals from under-sampled data. While compressive methods simplify data acquisition, they require the solution of difficult recovery problems to make use of the resulting measurements. This article presents a new sensing framework that combines the advantages of both conventional and compressive sensing. Using the proposed stone transform, measurements can be reconstructed instantly at Nyquist rates at any power-of-two resolution. The same data can then be enhanced to higher resolutions using compressive methods that leverage sparsity to beat the Nyquist limit. The availability of a fast direct reconstruction enables compressive measurements to be processed on small embedded devices. We demonstrate this by constructing a real-time compressive video camera.

We consider the problem of space-time super-resolution (ST-SR): increasing spatial resolution of video frames and simultaneously interpolating frames to increase the frame rate. Modern approaches handle these axes one at a time. In contrast, our prop osed model called STARnet super-resolves jointly in space and time. This allows us to leverage mutually informative relationships between time and space: higher resolution can provide more detailed information about motion, and higher frame-rate can provide better pixel alignment. The components of our model that generate latent low- and high-resolution representations during ST-SR can be used to finetune a specialized mechanism for just spatial or just temporal super-resolution. Experimental results demonstrate that STARnet improves the performances of space-time, spatial, and temporal video super-resolution by substantial margins on publicly available datasets.

Image enhancement is a subjective process whose targets vary with user preferences. In this paper, we propose a deep learning-based image enhancement method covering multiple tonal styles using only a single model dubbed StarEnhancer. It can transfor m an image from one tonal style to another, even if that style is unseen. With a simple one-time setting, users can customize the model to make the enhanced images more in line with their aesthetics. To make the method more practical, we propose a well-designed enhancer that can process a 4K-resolution image over 200 FPS but surpasses the contemporaneous single style image enhancement methods in terms of PSNR, SSIM, and LPIPS. Finally, our proposed enhancement method has good interactability, which allows the user to fine-tune the enhanced image using intuitive options.
Different from traditional image super-resolution task, real image super-resolution(Real-SR) focus on the relationship between real-world high-resolution(HR) and low-resolution(LR) image. Most of the traditional image SR obtains the LR sample by appl ying a fixed down-sampling operator. Real-SR obtains the LR and HR image pair by incorporating different quality optical sensors. Generally, Real-SR has more challenges as well as broader application scenarios. Previous image SR methods fail to exhibit similar performance on Real-SR as the image data is not aligned inherently. In this article, we propose a Dual-path Dynamic Enhancement Network(DDet) for Real-SR, which addresses the cross-camera image mapping by realizing a dual-way dynamic sub-pixel weighted aggregation and refinement. Unlike conventional methods which stack up massive convolutional blocks for feature representation, we introduce a content-aware framework to study non-inherently aligned image pair in image SR issue. First, we use a content-adaptive component to exhibit the Multi-scale Dynamic Attention(MDA). Second, we incorporate a long-term skip connection with a Coupled Detail Manipulation(CDM) to perform collaborative compensation and manipulation. The above dual-path model is joint into a unified model and works collaboratively. Extensive experiments on the challenging benchmarks demonstrate the superiority of our model.
Interlacing is a widely used technique, for television broadcast and video recording, to double the perceived frame rate without increasing the bandwidth. But it presents annoying visual artifacts, such as flickering and silhouette serration, during the playback. Existing state-of-the-art deinterlacing methods either ignore the temporal information to provide real-time performance but lower visual quality, or estimate the motion for better deinterlacing but with a trade-off of higher computational cost. In this paper, we present the first and novel deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) based method to deinterlace with high visual quality and real-time performance. Unlike existing models for super-resolution problems which relies on the translation-invariant assumption, our proposed DCNN model utilizes the temporal information from both the odd and even half frames to reconstruct only the missing scanlines, and retains the given odd and even scanlines for producing the full deinterlaced frames. By further introducing a layer-sharable architecture, our system can achieve real-time performance on a single GPU. Experiments shows that our method outperforms all existing methods, in terms of reconstruction accuracy and computational performance.
We propose a novel real-time selfie video stabilization method. Our method is completely automatic and runs at 26 fps. We use a 1D linear convolutional network to directly infer the rigid moving least squares warping which implicitly balances between the global rigidity and local flexibility. Our network structure is specifically designed to stabilize the background and foreground at the same time, while providing optional control of stabilization focus (relative importance of foreground vs. background) to the users. To train our network, we collect a selfie video dataset with 1005 videos, which is significantly larger than previous selfie video datasets. We also propose a grid approximation method to the rigid moving least squares warping that enables the real-time frame warping. Our method is fully automatic and produces visually and quantitatively better results than previous real-time general video stabilization methods. Compared to previous offline selfie video methods, our approach produces comparable quality with a speed improvement of orders of magnitude.
